Going to court can be a scary experience. Today, District Court Family Judge Cynthia Giuliani switched her robe with a fairy godmother suit to finalize adoptions for six families. Many of the children will came in costume to heighten the fun and help make it a day they will always remember.

This is the third year Judge Giuliani suited-up as a fairy godmother for adoptions around Halloween. “Court can be an intimidating experience, especially for children. We do this to make these adoptions fun instead of scary. Everybody can use a fairy godmother in their life to make things extra special,” said Judge Giuliani. “There’s a big need for adoptive families and this is also a fun way to get the word out so more children can get into permanent, stable homes with loving, caring families.” Family court is involved in other special adoption events, including an annual adoption day marathon which is scheduled this year for November 19. For more information about adoption, call the Clark County Department of Family Services at 702-455-7414.

“It’s great to see Family Court judges come up with creative ways raise awareness about the issue of getting children into permanent, stable, loving families,” said Family Division Presiding Judge Charles Hoskin. “There is a great need in Clark County to get good, caring families to step in to care for children in need.”
